I am new to this and have made several things. But had someone ask me to make kisses labels and I am stuck. How do find a template and insert it to the program? So confused and would appreciate anyone's help.

There are several ways to make the Hershey Kiss labels. The size should be 3/4". Some of us order labels from onlinelabels.com and use their free program (Maestro) to set up the labels. Others just create the circles in WrapCandy (or another graphics program) and then punch out the labels with a 3/4" punch and adhere the labels to the kisses. If you look below, under "Related Topics", I'm sure you'll find lots of information.

Thank you for the info. I figured out how to make a sheet of them, but they are all just 1 style. I guess that is why people have the template, huh? I tried to download some off here and it gave me an error for corrupt file even after I shut off the firewall. I am desperate. If anyone has a template I would be super grateful. Even can send it to my email mandi_faye1302@yahoo.com. Thank you sooo much:)

Thanks for the link to the old post, Paula. Those old posts are useful if you have 7.3 Pro...just in case Mandi doesn't have that version, here is a JPG that you can insert into a full page in WrapCandy. Then if you want to make a page of different kisses, just save each design as a JPG or PNG and insert it on top of a circle. Does that make sense? Of course, if you don't have the Pro version, you won't be able to save your creation as a JPG or PNG...in that case, I'd suggest that you upgrade to Pro.

Thank you soooo much:) So I can still make it if I don't have the pro version. I just can't save it? I know I need to upgrade soon. I just got it to check it out and do a few baby shower things for my sis. But turns out I love how creative you can be and there are so many ways to use it:) Thanks again for answering my questions ladies. I appreciate the help.

Yes, you can create in the basic version, but you can't save any of your creations as JPG or PNG graphics. You will want to upgrade soon - there are so many more things you can do with the Pro version. Have fun!!!

I am trying to make Hershey kiss stickers and i uploaded the circle templates, now how do i create each circle? Do I add pictures, but then how do I make them round to fit inside the template?
thanks folks. I feel I have already learned so much going through the different forums.

You add whatever you want..pictures, words, you put the picture or words inside of the circle that is showing in the template. Are you printing to circle stickers? Or a blank sticky back sheet and then using a punch to cut them out?

Maxluv · « **Reply #9 on:** May 11, 2012, 07:11:17 AM »

Your picture doesn't have to be round, just has to fit in the circle, but if you want it round you need to crop it round.

I've used the wrap candy file templates. I don't use the premade stickers so I don't have to worry about if the paper is liked up. I just cut them out and use the glue dots on the bottom. I have a punch but sometimes (if you have writing) its too small. So I end up cutting circles by hand. Its not that bad though. Its fun! And I know you'll be proud of your finished kisses! And like Maxluv said, it doesn't have to be round. You can make any image small enough to fit into the circle.

thanks everyone. I am figuring it out. I have put some pictures in them and words. It looks blurry though. I am printing on sticky paper then cutting them out. for a graduation party. They are not as cute as ones I have seen though.

Do they look blurry when printed? If so, then something's wrong - they shouldn't print blurry unless the pictures you're using are very low resolution.

Ok, I have the premade .75 inch round stickers, but can't seems to get them lined up. Does anyone know the demensions for the labels from onlinelabel.com? I want to use WrapCandy and not other programs.

It's actually best to use the program that online labels has, Maestro. It's harder to line up using WC, if you wanted to use WC would been better to buy the whole sticker sheet and use a punch to punch them out. you can pull up the template on online labels its in pdf i think.
